Hi! Also add Webnographer to your list of remote testing methods. It is a new tool for automated remote usability testing. Webnographer is a scenario based method that combines logs (hover, click, etc.) with questionnaires for qualitative and quantitative user feedback.

The tool gives developers quick feedback, and also provides rich user feedback for detailed analysis. Its advanced analysis module allows in depth analysis of user logs and provides insight into where issues occurred and why they have occurred.

Usability testing is a special form of testing that looks for bugs not in the functionality of the program, but in the layout and utility of the user interface. It evaluates how easy a system is to learn and use. Thanks a lot…
